Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

"As long as we investigate the people who keep cats and compare the cat hairs, we will know the source." Her words made sense, and everyone present nodded in agreement.

Aunt Xu also agreed: "Miss Ye is right, then..."

The woman in the crowd had an ugly face. After struggling for a long time, she bit her lower lip so hard that it almost bled. As the situation escalated, she realized that she might have to bear the blame.

Finally making up her mind, she stood up.

"I..." The woman looked very weak and pale, "The cat hair is indeed from my cat."

The crowd was in an uproar, staring at the usually gentle and quiet third daughter of the Minister of Revenue, looking at her in disbelief.

The woman's eyes were red, tears were hanging on her cheeks, and she shook her head desperately to explain: "It's not me, I didn't mix the cat hair into the clothes, I just lent the cat out, and when the cat was returned, its hair had been shorn off, and I was sad for a while at that time..."

"I really didn't do such a thing." As soon as she finished speaking, Rong Wanling's face turned even more gloomy.

Ye Yunzi smiled slightly, turned her gaze towards the woman, and asked, "Who did you lend the cat to?"

The woman's body trembled, and she looked at Su Yu and Rong Wanling involuntarily, feeling as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

A few days ago, Su Yu borrowed a cat from her. She felt a little uneasy at the time. Later, Su Yu returned the cat with strange haircuts.

She thought her cat had been tricked and cried bitterly, but due to the difference in their status, she did not say anything and could only endure it silently.

However, what she didn't expect was that Su Yu actually cut the cat hair and mixed it into her clothes. What's worse, Her Royal Highness the Princess is allergic to cat hair.

This is a serious crime of murdering the princess! Even if her father is the Minister of Revenue, he can't do anything.

If she doesn't tell the truth now, she will be the one who will be sentenced to death... No, she must tell the truth...

The woman struggled, but finally mustered up the courage to say, "I lent the cat to Miss Su Yu of the Marquis's Mansion. The servants in the house saw it and can testify for me."

At this time, it was Su Yu's turn to look ugly. She clenched her fists and was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

Madam Xu turned her gaze to Su Yu: "Miss Su, is what the Third Miss said true?"

"I..." Su Yu originally wanted to help Rong Wanling out of trouble, but she didn't expect to get herself involved. Her face changed constantly, and finally she said in a trembling voice: "Wanling wanted to borrow a cat. She asked me where I could find a cat, so I went to borrow it."

Su Yu lowered her head deeply, not daring to look directly at Rong Wanling. Saying this would be tantamount to pushing all the responsibility onto Rong Wanling.

Rong Wanling was so angry that she almost bit her teeth, her heart was filled with rage. Those people who had always flattered her, when they encountered troubles, ran faster than rabbits and put all the blame on her.

But now, in front of everyone, she couldn't lose her temper and could only suppress her anger.

"Miss Rong, what do you want to say?" Nanny Xu looked at Rong Wanling seriously. The cat hair was found in her cloak, and she had borrowed the cat and cut its hair herself. She knew what was going on without much thought.

Under Aunt Xu's questioning, Rong Wanling broke out in a cold sweat and her hands and feet were cold.

The plan was originally set up to frame Ye Yunzi, but she didn't expect that it would backfire on her in the end. Now she doesn't know how to deal with it.

Not far away, General Ronghe was walking quickly towards them.

When Rong Wanling saw Rong He, she felt relieved and thought that as the niece of the general and the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion, nothing would happen to her.

So she called out eagerly, "Uncle!"

Upon seeing this, everyone bowed their heads and saluted, with respect on their faces.

General Rong He had to be respectful even to the Emperor, and Rong Wanling was the apple of the Rong family's eye.

This time he came, obviously to protect her.

Madam Xu also bowed her head and saluted: "Master Rong."

"Uncle, I..." Rong Wanling's face was full of grievance. She felt that all this was the work of that woman Ye Yunzi. She didn't know what means she had used to swap the linings of the two clothes.

The most important thing right now is how to resolve this matter, otherwise I may be severely punished.

She looked at Ronghe with hope, knowing that her uncle doted on her and treated her like his own daughter. Moreover, she was going to be the queen in the future, so her uncle would not let anything happen to her no matter what.

However, just when she was full of confidence, Rong He hurried past her without noticing her at all, and walked straight to Aunt Xu, anxiously asking: "How is Princess Wei Yang? Has the imperial physician been asked to see her?"

"Uncle..." Rong Wanling stood there in a daze, all her expectations shattered in an instant.

She had never seen her uncle care so much about someone. It turned out that he came for Princess Wei Yang.

"Mr. Rong," Madam Xu said calmly, "The princess cannot touch anything because of her ringworm, but Miss Rong sent a birthday gift mixed with cat hair. It is really puzzling."

"Cat hair?" Rong He frowned, and a cold aura emanated from his body.

He clearly remembered that Princess Wei Yang once broke out in a rash all over her body after hugging a cat and almost died.

His eyes focused and his pupils suddenly contracted when he saw the fine down filling in the cloak mixed with cat hair.

"Uncle, it's not me, I..." Rong Wanling took two steps forward and wanted to explain. It was not her fault. It was Ye Yunzi who should have been punished.

Immediately afterwards, a crisp slap sounded.

The scene suddenly fell into deathly silence, and everyone held their breath, watching what was happening before their eyes.

Rong Wanling turned her head and felt a burning sensation on her face.

"You ignorant child." Rong He said angrily, "Wei Yang is allergic to cat hair. How can you put cat hair in your clothes?"

Ronghe's angry look scared everyone around him and they didn't dare to get close to him.

Rong Wanling couldn't believe that her uncle actually slapped her, and this slap made her wake up.

Framing a woman is a serious crime, and the cat hair was found in her cloak, so she will be charged with the crime.

"Our Rong family dotes on you too much. It seems that we have spoiled you." Rong He's words were merciless and he had no intention of protecting her at all.

Rong Wanling was trembling all over, her heart aching. She knew that her uncle had always been upright, and as a general, he was even more upright, so he would definitely not plead for her this time.

She pinched her thigh hard and tears flowed down her face uncontrollably.

"Uncle, my niece means well."

"Good intentions? Do you know that Wei Yang almost lost his life because of hugging a cat?" Rong He was worried about Wei Yang's situation. When he saw Wei Yang's pale face, his heart felt extremely painful.

Normally, he loved Rong Wanling very much. Because she had no children, he always treated Rong Mingxuan and Rong Wanling as his own children and had high hopes for them. However, he did not expect this to happen, which really disappointed him.
